    Just a note, matzah that is not made under very special conditions as in the type of water used, the type of flour used, and the time to make (less then 18 minutes from start to finish) with no air bubbles whatsoever which is done by using a special tool, cannot be used for Passover.

    Never made or eaten matzah before, so I don't have much to go on, but this made a really nice workable dough. I used the olive oil, but then decided I wanted more or a cracker-like texture, so I doubled the baking time and it worked out fairly well.
